So basically I took many steps today and yesterday, some good some misguided, that helped blow up the game. (Sprial contributed too though.) Why did I do it? Partly to make the game more fun and less Group A vs. all. But also I saw the path the game was going down and it ended in an Amanda or Glyn victory every time (or maybe Dean-Chard or Sheila victory as a coaster). And not with me winning. Glyn and Amanda were simply set up too well across group lines with people like Parker and Spiral. And on the side with people like Richard. She wasn't giving me info, and maybe she really just didn't have time to give it but I think that's BS. She somehow had time to tell Adam about Shahbaz' power but not me, yeah right. Cardashians are supposed to be her core alliance, not the people she tells last. My guess is I would reach top 8 or 9 and be basically cooked every time unless me Jennie and Sezer won out?
So what happened...
Earlier today I guessed that Shah had the abduction power which sent him to Amanda yelling and upset. My goal was ultimately to have him think amanda told me but I screwed up and did this too early before the noms which gave time for it to all be resolved prior to the ceremonies. If I hadn't heard from amanda before then, I could reasonably have been like yeah I told chelsia because you weren't telling me about shah's power. But since we already resolved that, I couldn't later use that as a rationale and had to deny talkign to chelsia. I sort of got out of that by telling the truth, but Glyn and Amanda's trust in me may have lessened. I did tell Amanda that Glyn did nothing wrong, since I know she loves him. But honestly Glyn and Adam shouldn't tell me "amanda knows the power and she told us but we can't tell you." LOL what am I supposed to think from that? It's super sketch. At least tell glyn that she's going to tell the rest of the cardashians so we aren't left hanging.
When Chelsia won it became clear from jennie/amanda that Shah was not being put up. Chelsia then found out about the attempted backdoor, I later learned she heard from Spiral. I heard that from Jennie because apparently chelsia and amanda confronted each other about it. Chelsia then didn't use the veto, amanda and her fought more. During that time, I told chelsia what I knew. Basically spilled the beans about Amanda and Glyn running shit and Glyn lying to everyone because (1) I felt like I was going to get blamed for Chelsia knowing the plan anyway, and (2) I could at least try to build something with chelsia and have her go against glyn and amanda if she wins. It turns out Chelsia doesn't really have allies right now, lol. So that kinda sucks for me haha. Maybe she can pull back in susie or pete. But she trusts spiral who is amanda's buddy and in the new cross A-B alliance that I am not in but has glyn richard jennie parker spiral and aisleyne. And she keeps almost trusting glyn even though i'm telling her the whole point of all of this is not to trust glyn. So she could blow up my thing with her at any time too haha.
So what is the result of tonight? Did my immediate position become worse? Yes, much worse. LOL. But I think if I can survive the next two evictions by lying low and letting Chelsia or Shah or Amanda or the couple take the fall, then I could be in a better position to ultimately win if things reset. For one, if Chelsia survives, I now have the strongest competitor on my side. Two, Amanda is much more exposed now. Three I think Glyn is more exposed and Jennie firmly does not trust him and Richard. She still seems to trust Amanda though haha. Four Amanda totally blew up her own deal with Shah which was honestly luck and a godsend for me haha. Him using that power against someone that isn't me would be huge. Even if he uses it on Chelsia I kind of doubt he puts me up.
For the vote tomorrow, I'm pretty indifferent. Pete staying maybe gives chelsia a number but him going makes her more reliant on me. Susie is probably in the couple so her staying is another target that's good.
Moral of the story: I didn't want to spend another 20 days playing this to say "good game glyn" at the end. I wanted to play on my terms. And that's this chaotic nonsense going on now.
